'Botex 010' 010 butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii 'Botex 010') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Fragrant blooms open from early to late summer and again in early to late autumn, drawing butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds. Deer tend to pass it by. The arching stems grow fast.
